We all know that risk lives in the gaps — the spaces between teams, technologies, processes and workflows. The gaps are where information falls through the cracks, emerging issues go unnoticed and bad actors gain entry. The challenge for governance and risk professionals is that the modern enterprise ecosystem just keeps growing. You’re dealing with more specialized teams and more technologies, tools and third-party partners. With all of this come more risk gaps.

This year’s Modern Governance Summit focused on closing risk gaps. More than 600 GRC and ESG professionals gathered together to close knowledge gaps and share hard-learned best practices. The opening keynote set the tone in one short sentence: “Risk is a fact of life.” The goal isn’t to eliminate risk, but to gain the visibility to understand it, prioritize it and ensure it doesn’t obstruct your organization’s core purpose.

We covered a lot of ground in 70+ sessions over two days. Whether or not you attended, make sure to review the information-rich highlights in our quick recap blogs from Day 1 and Day 2 of the event.
